I needed to find some specialty items we can't seem to get in the US easily anymore (looking at you…read moreChartreuse) so I did some research into liquor stores in Lyon. I'm very glad I came across this particular store because not only was it easy to find but we easily found everything we needed. Walking in, the displays are a feast for the eyes. Everything is organized so well and decorated so nicely. The sections are easy to navigate. There is more in this store than just wine and liquor as well. There's a nice assortment of candies, teas, and other specialty food items. The people who work in the store are also very friendly and helpful.

Lovely farmers market next to the Saône river…read more Lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, but also cured meats, cheeses and some prepared food, mostly at very fair prices. A really nice stroll in the morning. We went back twice.

Never mind Les Halles de Paul Bocuse…read more This is THE great gourmet market in Lyon. It is a massive massive street market on the banks of the Saone. Being on the river, it is as scenic as can possibly be imagined. The market goes on and on and on and on and on. Every kind of meat, every kind of fish, every kind of shellfish, every kind of vegetable, every kind of fruit, every kind of cheese, every kind of bread, every kind of pastry, every kind of spice, every kind of charcuterie, every kind of artisanal prepared food, Any thing you can think of in French cuisine: It's all here at the Marche Saint-Antoine. And they have it at multiple stalls - so you can pick and choose which vendor you like. Want to make pigeon stuffed with quince? They have the pigeon. They have the quince. Do you want fromage blanc made on the Savoyard model rather than following the Lyonnaise model? You have that option and six other choices as well. Have a French cookbook you read but can't use, since you can't find about a third of the ingredients? All those ingredients are at the Marche Saint-Antoine. The prices are very very reasonable. (The contrast with Les Halles de Paul Bocuse is particularly striking on the price issue.) If I lived in Lyon, I would set my cooking days to be the market days at the Marche Saint-Antoine ... Even if there was a perfectly good smaller market in my neighborhood.
